I’m between two shoes as my next shoe for 70.3 training and racing. I’ve been using On Clouds (version 1) at 7.0oz. Now that version 2.0 is at 8.1oz, I’m looking for something lighter than 8oz.
Things I liked about On Clouds were the comfort of the upper and elastic laces. I never found the fit sloppy. I also liked the responsiveness. Finally, I never thought there was a lack of cushioning.
I’m considering the Fastwitch and the Razor 3 (both 6.4oz) as a replacement. I’ve seen some say they use the Fastwitch for everything up to marathons. Others say it’s only good for racing up to 10k’s. It gets praise for responsiveness.
The Razor 3 is apparently very versatile. Many use it for up to marathons. Apparently it does have good responsiveness and energy return, but is well cushioned. It has very little arch though, which might not be great for me as I have flat feet (never had an issue with foot pain though).
Any feedback on these two would be appreciated.
